NCU Catalog - April 2018 [ARCHIVED CATALOG]
Academic Maximum Time to Completion
|
|
NCU requires students to complete all degree or certificate program requirements within specific time limits as outlined in the Catalog to be eligible for graduation. Students who do not complete their degree or certificate program within the required time limits may be academically dismissed from the University. The program completion guidelines outline the maximum time frames allotted to students and do not supersede the obligation to maintain satisfactory academic progress through the student’s program of study. Program completion deadlines are calculated based on the first date of attendance in the student’s program. In extenuating circumstances, with accompanying documentation, Deans may approve an extension to the academic maximum time frame. Approved extensions may not exceed the requirements to maintain satisfactory academic progress.
